First [FR] so bear with me...(after writing it I had no idea how long it became, please let me know if I went into too much detail)

Some important notes: the only thing that matters, is that you are feeling good.

Pretext to the night:

Saturday night hanging out with neighbor/musician in my apartment recording a new song together. Roommate heads out to a karaoke bar around 11:30 and we say we'll meet him there in an hour, and thank god we took that time. Out of nowhere we came up with a simple but catchy chorus for our song, and are now feeling like 'the man'. We walk to the bar about 20 blocks down singing the chorus out loud the whole way there and just vibing and playing off each other, our blood is pumping and just feeling good.

Now onto the bar:

Get in and go downstairs to the karaoke section where my friends are waiting for us, grab a drink and start chatting it up and meeting the new people in the group, just getting in the social mood. I decide I'm going to do a song, I by NO means am a singer, but being on stage a lot (guitarist in a band) makes it easy to put on a good Fucking Awesome show. I'm far down the line so now I have to kill time.

Walking around I come across the hostess by the front door of the downstairs area, beautiful long red hair 5'4" slender and what I soon find out has got some muscle. I open her with:

"So you're the bouncer for tonight huh?"

Yep

"You might have to throw me out then."

Oh really??

"But you'll have to pick me up to do it."

OK!

She then proceeds to actually pick me up as if holding a baby, arms under my legs and back, struggles a little so I help her out a bit, but we're laughing the whole time so we're just having fun.

I give her a high five for effort and use a trick I learned here, High five with a very open hand, when you connect, lace your fingers together and now you are holding hands, pull her in and get close.

A minute or two goes by and I somehow find an excuse to pick her up, so like she did, I swept her off her feet and follow with this horribly awful but amazing line: "So how many times do you get to say you've been swept off your feet?"

She laughs and says once, by the (actual) bouncer of the bar, I joke that I have to throw her out and start making my way to the stairs with her in my arms. She's holding on for dear life around my neck as I climb up, she's laughing and screaming Oh my god oh my god oh my god no no we have to go back down. So fine, I oblige this time and on the way back down, miss the first step and we almost take a tumble. We recoup and I immediately blame her saying it's all her fault and giving her a playful little shove.

I now tell her I'm going to sing a song tonight, she asks what song, I pause, look her in the eyes.

"Fall out Boy - Sugar, We're Going Down"

She lights up, "I LOVE FALL OUT BOY!" (Awesome, I'm in.)

No more than 20 seconds goes by and they are calling my name to sing, I go up and it takes the DJ some time to get it going, so I turn my back to the audience, pull down my hair to look like Pete Wentz and start sipping my beer....but wait, now the entire bar is chanting "CHUG CHUG CHUG CHUG CHUG CHUG CHUG!!!" So I think, fuck it! down the drink and get on stage. Music starts going and I'm rocking out head banging and OWNING the stage, confidence through the roof and the bar is screaming, MASSIVE social proof, every song before me was 'play it safe songs' classic rock with Sweet Caroline, so I'm so far the first one to put some edge on the night. Two tall blonds come up on stage start dancing while I'm singing and I'm messing with them putting the mic in their face and all, just showing that I get along with whoever is around me and I'm comfortable in my own skin

Songs over, now everyone in the bar is giving me high fives, not a single other performance got a reaction like me, I am SO doing this in the future, feelsgoodman

Go back to the hostess, she said I was the highlight of her night and was a little more than impressed. She asks if I'm friends with everyone who just high fived me. I say,

"No, hmm I probably have aids now, I don't know where they've been"

I don't think that's how you get AIDs, and gives a chuckle

"Oh thank GOD" and I pull her in close and hold her hand.

A few more minutes go by with banter back and forth I ask her when she gets off work, "3:00, but I live in Brooklyn so I can't hang out with you after cuz I got to wake up early for work"

I reply with, "Woah slow down, I'm not that easy" THIS LINE IS GENIUS

She makes a double take and is flabbergasted at that remark, girls are just not even remotely used to that.

A new girl comes over now, she's a waitress from upstairs and is helping out downstairs now, another beautiful girl about the same size with a little messy brown hair but the sweetest most innocent face and smile.

It comes up in conversation that they both rap and sometimes rap together on stage at the bar, so now I tell them, they have to rap for me, but I say it can only be for 30 seconds. The red head complies and asks me to beat box for her and she goes off.

I'm now looking at the waitress and for some absurdly strange reason I ask, "are you Jewish?" (I am). She's taken aback at how so random, yet right I was and puts on this huge smile, she now tells me she can speak Hebrew. I cut her off and start talking to her in Hebrew and again, she is floored. I'm using Israeli slang that she doesn't know so now I get to teach her, but what I'm saying are things like "You have beautiful eyes/you have my heart/you are my soulmate" she is blushing now and getting real close. I tease her about not knowing anything I'm saying and then shift on to her rapping. She confesses that she LOVES Will Smith so I make her do her favorite rap, the Wild Wild West rap and she hits it flawlessly.

Eventually I go back to hang out with my friends for a bit and return to the hostess (red head) just before we're all about to leave. I go in and ask for her number and BAM I put it in my phone and am on my way home feeling like a bad ass. I was interested in the waitress as well, but could not find her (think she was in the kitchen) whatever. On my way home with the fellas and recap the night and just being happy.

Edit: Phone is retarded, I actually have her number, now I just have to work on text game...

Thinking of sending this: "It's been a while since I've been swept off my feet, let's do it again sometime. -Pete Wentz"

Thoughts?


TL;DR: Wrote a song, felt like a boss, made her kino me first and fast, sang karaoke got HUGE crowd reaction, and fucked up not saving her number.
